Quote by Shehan Karunatilaka

“The mistakenly killed engineers let out gasps and you see the shadow before you se its source. The thing is large and ambles on four legs like a hound. It leaps along the roofs of the cars, but all you see is a mass of hair, teeth and eyes. It is what you hear that terrifies. Voices caked in fear, imprisoned in flesh, like souls beyond help. A cacophony of mewling, like duelling synthesisers played badly. As if synthesisers could be played any other way.”
